Ok I'm quite late posting this, but several weeks ago I made my first Prada purchase! I went in the store to check out the Re-Edition and ended up with both of these lovelies!
The Re-Edition 2005 is adorable! I usually try to stick with classic bags rather than trendy ones, but this was a pretty good price point and seems really versatile and hardy.
The cross-body, though . . . I am absolutely in love. The leather is soft and luxurious, it's a great size, and I love that the perforated logo isn't too loud, while the reverse has only the small Prada logo triangle if you want to be really discreet. The nylon strap also has Prada written on only one side, also great for discretion, and a D-ring that was probably intended for a coin pouch but that I've found is ideal for sunglasses. I love how versatile it is -- it can be a casual crossbody, a dressier shoulder bag (I intend to buy a chain for this purpose), or a more formal clutch. Photos really don't do it justice -- the perforations on the leather are gorgeous.
Oddly enough, I can't find the crossbody on the Prada website . . . or anywhere else online! I just wanted to find the name, and maybe some more information about it. The authenticity card just lists the product number/material/color, not a name. I usually research a bag to death before buying, so this impulse purchase was unusual for me. And it's driving me nuts that I can't find it anywhere -- not here on TPF or resale sites, and even Googling the product number comes up empty. Oh well, I'm happy to enjoy my "ghost bag"!

So, in light of the controversy surrounding the discontinuation of the LV toiletry pouches, I discovered this Gucci Ophidia pouch. It’s actually intended to be used as a clutch. It’s my first Gucci piece and I’m really liking it.
I was able to use the inserts that I purchased for the LV toiletry 26 to convert it into a shoulder/ crossbody bag. This is definitely a great alternative…

I have purchased a few YSL bags lately and a wallet! Really loving this brand 
which I didn’t pay too much attention to before. With the limiting of LV canvas had to look elsewhere . I have picked up a few LV leather bags recently but I can’t justify too many LV Leather bags at their prices.

I received this beauty today, I’m in love. Saint Laurent Monogram Matelasse Chain Wallet.
I ordered her online from Harrods on Tuesday and she arrived from the UK this afternoon. She was packaged very well, and arrived in perfect condition. I sadly will be returning my Becky Double Zip Pouch in Quilted Lambskin that I had purchased during the YSL sale. The strap was too long for me as I’m only 5’3.

So gorgeous! Love that beautiful beige/nude colourI have purchased a few YSL bags lately and a wallet! Really loving this brand
After my last disastruous experience with LV, I turned my back on them and I don't think I'll ever return to LV. At least I'll never order from them again, not as long as they refuse to ship with anybody else than UPS.
I just love a good sale, so I snagged this cutie off of Valentino's online sale.
Can't wait 'til the bag arrives
Here's a pic from the website
I'm a sucker for front and side pockets

How do you like the Loulou Puffer? I always wanted to get the one in navy, but something keeps holding me back...
Are you worried about scuffing on the corners?
Thank you! I really love itBeautiful!

. Bag is so soft and light weight. Seems pretty durable where I don’t have to baby my bag but I’m not rough on them either. I tend to worry more about canvas and corners more so than leather. Leather there is always a way to cover the corners and make them look a little better. With many bags it’s just part of wearing them, so I tend not to worry too much about corners! I just buy what I like and enjoy using my bag Technically not my own purchase since it was a birthday gift from my partner...
He snagged this during the Loewe sale so it was 30% off normal price. It's actually my third (!) Puzzle, the other two being a large and an extra large.

My new babies…
Sorry Louis.. If you want me back, please train your SA not to be arrogant and stop ignoring their customer. I have different treatment at Chanel and I am happy spending my money there.

Does this count as other than Louis if they own that company?
